Jaworski made the comments in pitching current ESPN colleague and former Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Oakland Raiders coach Jon Gruden for the job.

Jaworski once teamed with Gruden in ESPN's "Monday Night Football" booth, but left the broadcast for other ESPN programming prior to this season.

Gruden is reportedly interested in the Eagles' job, but the team hasn't reached out to him, Jaworski said. Instead, Philadelphia has focused its efforts on college coaches and NFL assistants who "haven't proven themselves," Jaworski told the Inquirer.

Penn State's Bill O'Brien and Oregon's Chip Kelly both interviewed for the Eagles' job, but opted to return to their respective schools instead.
